Andrew Abramson ‏@AbramsonPBP 1m1 minute ago #Dolphins injuries for today's practice: Koa Misi (calf), Jordan Tripp (ankle). RETURN of Kenny Stills

Armando Salguero ‏@ArmandoSalguero 1m1 minute ago
Dolphins TE Arthur Lynch is no longer Dolphins TE Arthur Lynch. He's been waived.

..and there it is like alot of us thought


Miami Dolphins ‏@MiamiDolphins 4m4 minutes ago
We have signed free agent linebacker James Davidson and waived tight end Arthur Lynch.

Greg Likens ‏@GregLikens 5m5 minutes ago
In a corresponding move, the #Dolphins have signed LB James Davidson. 6-3, 242-pounder joins Miami after spending time with NYG & CIN in '14

tough luck for Lynch, that back injury really held him back. I feel bad for him

James Walker ‏@JamesWalkerNFL 2m2 minutes ago
My thoughts on the Arthur Lynch cut by the #Dolphins: No surprise. The TE was hurt all last year and didn't show much in camp this year.

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 2m2 minutes ago
WR Kenny Stills preparing for practice. He's back from his calf injury.

Miami needs to keep an eye on Kyle Brindza from the Lions. He has been pushing Matt Prater and may be worth looking at. Also good to see Stills on the field.

Adam Beasley ‏@AdamHBeasley 1m1 minute ago
No Albert in first team drills. Matthews, not Stills, with ones to start. And he catches a TD immediately

Armando Salguero ‏@ArmandoSalguero 1m1 minute ago
Richard Matthews still working with the first team offense.

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 1m1 minute ago
T'hill TD to Rishard Matthews in red zone drill. Nice throw & catch

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 26s26 seconds ago
T'hill likely TD pass goes thru Greg Jennings hands in end zone. U don't c that very often.

Andrew Abramson ‏@AbramsonPBP 23s23 seconds ago
#Dolphins open up practice in red zone drill Tannehill to Matthews TD. Matthews in over Stills, not surprising after Stills been out a while

LB Jordy Tripp (ankle) walking much better today. Limp not nearly as obvious.

Barry Jackson ‏@flasportsbuzz 22s23 seconds ago
New Dolphins LB James Davidson, out of UTEP, has played in two games in NFL for Giants, both last year. He takes Arthur Lynch's roster spot.

RBs, WRs doing ball security drill. Think it was only a prob w/Gillislee v. Bears. Maybe drill paying off.

 

[FSU Truth]

Good to see Stills back at it....very happy with Matthews progress.

All this does is allow the team to bring Parker along slowly....good for everyone.

 

[AL R]

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 43s44 seconds ago
Special teams segment. Disappointing performance v. Bears. Still think they'll be force tho. Even w/kicker issue.

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 31s31 seconds ago
CB Will Davis (knee) back after being off yesterday. Good 4 him. Gotta stay in tight CB race.

Greg Likens ‏@GregLikens 46s47 seconds ago
#Dolphins are wearing upper shells, shorts, & helmets today as practice has moved from the bubble to the outdoor fields

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 2m2 minutes ago
LT Branden Albert going thru 1 on 1 drill at half speed. Still limping but still participating on limited basis.

Tripp is walking much better this morning. Good news.

Tripp is walking much better this morning. Good news.

True, Meanwhile Misi...

Armando Salguero ‏@ArmandoSalguero 1m1 minute ago
WR Kenny Stills is back at practice but he's going to be worked in slowly. Few if any team-period drills.

 

[AL R]

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 1m1 minute ago
No changes in starting lineups today on either side of ball. That's prob good thing. Reserves kinda shaky so far.

Haven't seen any news on Turner's thumb hopefully he is good...

James Walker ‏@JamesWalkerNFL 1m1 minute ago
#Dolphins WR Kenny Stills is doing a lot of stretching of his calf as he gets ready for individual drills.

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 19s20 seconds ago
Lots of position work so far in practice. Not much hitting or 11 on 11, or 7 on 7 activity.

I didn't even know Turner injured his thumb.

Also, I hope Albert can stop the limp on his leg. Usually by this time they're just trying to fight the swelling from working on it, not still limping from it.

James Walker ‏@JamesWalkerNFL 11s11 seconds ago
#Dolphins K Caleb Sturgis nails two FGs of 41 and 46 yards early in practice.

Adam Beasley ‏@AdamHBeasley 39s40 seconds ago
Dallas Thomas and Billy Turner take the first reps with the 1s. They can really cement their spots with a strong week in the Carolinas.

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 41s42 seconds ago
T'hill inc deep. Intended for Landry v. Reshad. Pass underthrown and left of Landry, who was on right sideline

Armando Salguero ‏@ArmandoSalguero 55s56 seconds ago
Tannehill deep ball to Jarvis Landry ... Incomplete. Overthrown.

Well.....which one was it..

Andrew Abramson ‏@AbramsonPBP 22s23 seconds ago
#Dolphins veteran WR heads to practice field. Last day of open training camp in Davie. https://instagram.com/p/6fDLFYFu3w/

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 1m1 minute ago
Double reverse. DE Shelby sniffs it out for about 6-7 yd loss. Landry ended up with ball.

Armando Salguero ‏@ArmandoSalguero 22s23 seconds ago
Brandon Albert is taking his first team-drill of the preseason right now. Doing it with the second-team offense

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 38s38 seconds ago
LT Branden Albert running w/2nd team offense in this 11 on 11 and maybe half speed. Another positive

Greg Likens ‏@GregLikens 33s33 seconds ago
Moore in & complete to Robinson. Then PA complete to Hazel #Dolphins

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------

Adam Beasley ‏@AdamHBeasley 30s30 seconds ago
Stills: Back practicing. Albert: Looking healthy. You're on the clock, DeVante Parker.

Armando Salguero ‏@ArmandoSalguero 15s15 seconds ago Branden Albert's time in team-drills lasted all of one snap. We'll see if he comes back in.

Yesterday in camp but seems ok, it's wait and see on Albert - at least to see if he can get back close to where he was at before that injury.

Jeff Linkenbach running 3rd team LT. #Dolphins have big prob at backup OT on both sides. LG Thomas got look yesterday

James Walker ‏@JamesWalkerNFL 2m2 minutes ago
Decent run by #Dolphins rookie RB Jay Ajayi. I want to see him perform in a game setting.

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 1m1 minute ago
S Michael Thomas getting look at nickel w/1st team. Wonder why that took so long? And why doesn't happen more often?

James Walker ‏@JamesWalkerNFL 1m1 minute ago
#Dolphins rookie Jamil Douglas getting some reps at starting RG today.

‏@AbramsonPBP 48s48 seconds ago Branden Albert in there again, this time with first team. Nice day of progress for him


Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 18s18 seconds ago
Again, Albert hobbles after Fede. No way he can take on NFL pass rushers now. But he has 4 weeks til opener.

---------- Post added at 09:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 AM ----------

Chris Perkins ‏@chrisperk 7s8 seconds ago
Rookies Vigil, Lippett on punt coverage team. Good 4 them. Enhances chance of making 53-man roster.

Hal Habib ‏@gunnerhal 2m2 minutes ago
Branden Albert just took three snaps at LT. Moved OK after blocking Fede just now.
